This very small Otago cemetery is situated on State Highway 1, north of Dunedin and south of Palmerston. I can give more precise details if required.
It is owned and operated by a Trust and as such, burials do not show on the Dunedin City Council cemeteries website.
There are photographs of headstones to be found here:

I have a handwritten map showing the location of most of the burials up until about the early 1990's. If anyone requires these details I am happy to oblige.
